The group of feminine singers known as the Rubinstein Club gav the final program of this seuson last night at the Willard Hotel under tho direction of Claude Robeson, with Pauline Knoeller, accompanist. The guest soloist of the evening was Devora Nadworney, contralto, of the Chicago Civic Opera Co. i Nadworney has a very nice quality| of voice and won enthuslasm from her audience. She sang several en- cores. Her first group was principal- 1y of Russlan:songs by Gretchaninoff, Moussorgsky and Rachmaninoff, with one French song, Chausson's lovely composition, “Butterfiles.” o The inevitable operatic aria was a selection infrequently heard in Wash- Fille “p) Dame,” and was very terpreted.

S. 0f- ficials Cited to Show Cause in D. C. Court Friday. ief Justice McCoy of the Dis- tri Supreme Court today f{ssued a rule agalnst the United States Ship- ping Board Emergency Fleet Cor- poratlon, the individual members of the United States Shipping Board, the Admiral Oriental Line of Seattle, Wash., and R. Stanley Dollar of San Francisco, president of the latter cor- poration, requiring them to show cause Friday why they should not be enjoined from proceeding with the execution of the contract to sell the five President ships. The ships are now being operated for the Shipping Board under the name of the Ameri- can-Orfental Mall Line bhetween Beattle and Japan, China and the Phiiippines. The order of the court is based on an application for jnjunction by Charles 1. Peabody, Willlam Calvert, Harry Ostrander, George I\ Thorndyke, Moritz Thomson, A. W. Leonard, \Worrull Wilson, James H. Fox and Willam C. Dawson, resi- dents of Seattle; Charles E. Dant, Kenneth D. Dawson and Samuel M. Mears, residents of Portland, Ore.: Wilson B. Keene of the District of Columbia. and the Puget Sound Orfental Line, a corporation of Seattle. The plaintiffs are represent- ed by Attorneys McKenney & Flan- nery of Washington, Ira Bronson of FIVE cents is all you pay any where for delicious TORCH CUP CAKE CONES Manufactured by Maryland Baking Company BALTIMORE | | MAY 12 Seattle and Erskine Wood of Port- land. The ships intended to be sold are named President Grant, President Jackson, President Jefferson, Presi- dent McKinley and President Madison. The plaintiffs who are interested in shipping complain to the court that the Shipping Board declined to re- ceive and accept a bid for $4,600,000 which they tendered April 13 last and voted to accept a bid of Dollar and his company of $4,500,000. They also assert that changes were made in the specifications which permitted Dollar to divert one-or more of the ships to his other lines. The notice of the amended specifications did not reach Seattle and Portland until March 30 and 31, when the bids were to be opened April 6 and plaintiffs say they did not have time to proper- ly prepare their bid of $4,000,000 which was then submitted. ~Dollar’s bid on that occasion was for $4,5¢3,000 and at the next meeting of the Ship- ping Board, a. week Jlater, the plain- iffs raised the Dollar bid $100,000, but the Shipping Board declined to re. ceive it. Senate Inquiry Ends. The Senate committee on commerce concluded its inquiry yesterday into the sale of the five liners to the Dollar Interests. The committee will hold an executive session tomorrow to decide whether it has authority to advise the Shipping Board, and, if o, whether it should advise the board to go through with the sale, or reopen HEMSTITCHING Pleating, Buttons Covered | Embroidery Floss, assorted shades.

In the midst of an argument among committee members as to their au- thority and future course, William | Humphrey, counsel for R. Stanley Dollar, made a_plea for speedy com- mittee action.

The protest of Pacific Northwest interests opposed to the sale was concluded with the testimony of five more witnesses, who contended that the transaction would create a monop- | oly by the Dollar interests of Ameér ' ican shipping in the Pacific.
